I have finalized my ‘annual’ WSOP trip from Thursday June 7th through Monday June 11th. And am going as part of a ‘crew’ of sorts…about 8-10 from the Atlanta area that’ll be venturing to Sin City. It’s a very nice list of some of (what I consider) the better players in Atlanta. Swings being what [...]

One year in LA
Posted in Uncategorized on February 27, 2007 | Leave a Comment »
Well, yesterday marked my one full year anniversary in Los Angeles. I can’t really say time has flown, but it also has not been as bad as advertised. It’s been a tough stretch honestly though being away from friends and family on the east coast, the getting up early, and feeling I’m missing out on [...]
The Wynn Classic

First off, let me start by saying The Wynn is definitely about doing things right. A five star hotel which wreaks of elegance. Definitely a must see and if you can swing a few bucks, a must stay especially if you play poker. If you do, you can reserve the ‘poker’ rate which is only [...]
LA Poker Classic – $500+40NL Event
Posted in Uncategorized on February 22, 2007 | 1 Comment »
So with Mank in town, I ventured down the road to Commerce on a Tuesday evening. Mank convinced me to play in yet a satellite and sure enough, chopped it up and virtually earned my entry into the $500+40 NL event.
The event started at 3:30PM with around 680 players. I take my seat next to [...]
My Nanny Diaries – what a mess…

So for Shane’s first year and a half, I had a great nanny in Tasha who opted not to stay out in LA when after having tried it out for two months. So landed Joy. Joy was ok, but after five months moved to northern California. So ended up with Staci Sellers. Staci seemed like a [...]

Weekend poker results…thus far…

Well, picked up Mr. Mank Saturday at the airport and proceeded to go to the Hustler club. Was just speaking with Chris about table selection and of course wound up at a poor table. Just tight with probably 6-7 good players. Who wants to play that crap. Had my QQ out flopped by JJ and [...]
Poker week
Posted in Uncategorized on February 17, 2007 | Leave a Comment »
As I mentioned, I haven’t been playing a lot….dealing with missing nannies and such…but today starts four days in the next seven where I’ll be hitting the felt. Mr. Mank will be heading to sunny LA today for “business” and we’ll be hitting a few of the neighboring poker locales. He’s staying through Wednesday, so [...]
Poker back

I really had not been playing all that much lately, only like 2x this year, but had been on a torrid losing streak. Seemingly and hopefully snapped that this past weekend with a session over at the Commerce Casino. Up $780 on the session.
Played solid at a soft table and if it hadn’t been for [...]
Winter Ball over…

Our team went into the last game of the fall season with an opportunity to make the playoffs if we won and another team lost. The other team lost but so did we. We were playing the first place team and I started and left with a 5-4 lead after six innings. But we blew [...]
